One of the best hockey simulations ever made, Bethesda Softwork's Hockey League Simulator allows you to design and manage your own customized league, or create current or classic leagues from the past.
There are more statistics in this game than many other sport sim combined, all of which can be modified to your heart's content. Don't like how a team is playing in your simulated league? Fire its head coach, and take control. The scalability of HLS is remarkable for its time: you can coach any one particular team, or manage the entire league. Match results can be saved or printed, and the number of statistics and players you have at your disposal is staggering.
Best of all, HLS can be integrated seamlessly with best-selling Wayne Gretzsky Hockey to create the ultimate hockey action / managerial experience. Highly recommended!

Played this as a kid and teenager for years
Now I have my 10 year old hooked
Best sim ever. I played EHM but found that too be too in depth for me. Prefer a simpler faster game like hls
Does anyone have a scan of the pass codes?
I remember getting this when it came out; despite the simplistic nature of it (in comparison to the newer Eastside Hockey Manager) I invested literally LITERALLY hundreds of hours into playing it. Back then I had an 8088 PC so I couldnt play awesome games like Eye of the Beholder and such, so this was my fallback.
So many good memories
Also, this version is far, far superior IMHO to hockey league simulator II, at least as far as interface and game speed.
Definitely going to download for nostalgia sake
